About 3 Combe Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Combe Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX2 6BL). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a G (score 16), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £574,000 sits 57.3% above the 2014 sale of £365,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£538/sq ft) was about 29.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. 12 years since the last transfer (September 2014).

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Combe Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OX2 6BL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Combe Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Combe Road was lodged in July 2014 at band G and expired in July 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 3 Combe Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OX2 6BL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Combe Road is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
